Boris Johnson, the party animal, has vomited over standards in public life https://t.co/sV4UuR84n6

Lightning strikes beneath tonight's total #lunareclipse #lunareclipse2022 #eclipse2022 Satellite Beach, FL #flwx

Expecting cloud, I missed the start of the eclipse, but woke in time to catch the last sliver of bright Moon before totality began in a rapidly brightening sky at Walmer, Kent. #LunarEclipse

Once again, I’m glad I bought my hifi gear from Richer Sounds.

You won't read anything more powerful or brilliant than this all weekend. Everyone who can should share and donate. https://t.co/G9lv2N4btZ via @BootstrapCook

If you're seeing the latest UK statements on the Northern Ireland Protocol, here's what Boris Johnson and his colleagues have said about the Protocol and the Brexit deal from 2019 through to now. The UK argues its current implementation means the Protocol now has to change.

[James O'Brien @mrjamesob]

The UK government is preparing to unilaterally disavow an international treaty signed by the UK government fewer than three years ago. Worse, their 80-seat majority was built upon the now proven lie that it was a wonderful treaty that would signal the end of Brexit negotiations.

BREAKING: Met Police announce they have now made over 100 referrals for fixed penalty notices over partygate.

That makes Downing Street one of the biggest - if not THE biggest - rule breaking venue in Britain.

🚨The current crisis in the NHS is unnecessary and avoidable.

📢 Help us send @sajidjavid a message that he must act now to rebuild our NHS. #endnhscrisis

Still stuck in the Brexit quagmire, ministers look set to make it worse

Brexit hardman Steve Baker claims Johnson signed the Brexit deal 'under duress'. Odd that critics of it were dismissed as 'Remoaners' while his ERG colleague Iain Duncan Donuts stood up in the House of Commons to mock the notion that MPs might need more time to scrutinise it.

[Dan Walker @mrdanwalker]

I’ve watched our interview back a few times now.
Still trying to work out what happened.
I hope Mr Gove is ok.

@hellothisisivan Perhaps the news leaked, so they are pre-empting a story in one of tomorrow’s newspapers?

[British Poultry Council @britishpoultry]

BPC members lost £85 million in chicken exports to EU last year as a result of unreciprocated controls. They now will continue to face the burdens, costs & red tape that hinder fair competition until Oct 2023.

Taking your dog to mainland Europe by train/ferry: I've now updated https://t.co/huZgYmZ4ae to explain things. This £140 health form with more stamps than a 1970s Soviet transit visa has replaced the simple & inexpensive Pet Passport scheme - yet another Brexit dividend...
